not that I know of, only ipchains and iptables .. no ipfw or ipf on linux. There used to be an ipf a few years ago but that was back in the 2.0.x days. I don't think there's ever been ipfw available for linux. my firewall is freebsd too, runs 2 NICs in bridged mode w/ipfw and my NIDS. Behind that is my NAT box which runs linux 2.2.x and ipchains. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
